An expression signature for p53 status in human breast cancer predicts mutation status, transcriptional effects, and patient survival.

ABSTRACT: Perturbations of the p53 pathway are associated with more aggressive and therapeutically refractory tumors. However, molecular assessment of p53 status, by using sequence analysis and immunohistochemistry, are incomplete assessors of p53 functional effects. We posited that the transcriptional fingerprint is a more definitive downstream indicator of p53 function. Herein, we analyzed transcript profiles of 251 p53-sequenced primary breast tumors and identified a clinically embedded 32-gene expression signature that distinguishes p53-mutant and wild-type tumors of different histologies and outperforms sequence-based assessments of p53 in predicting prognosis and therapeutic response. Moreover, the p53 signature identified a subset of aggressive tumors absent of sequence mutations in p53 yet exhibiting expression characteristics consistent with p53 deficiency because of attenuated p53 transcript levels. Our results show the primary importance of p53 functional status in predicting clinical breast cancer behavior.

An expression signature for p53 in breast cancer predicts mutation status, transcriptional effects, and patient survival

Project description:The biological tumor samples (ie, breast tumor specimens) consisted of freshly frozen breast tumors from a population-based cohort of 315 women representing 65% of all breast cancers resected in Uppsala County, Sweden, from January 1, 1987 to December 31, 1989. Estrogen receptor status was determined by biochemical assay as part of the routine clinical procedure. An experienced pathologist determined the Elston-Ellis grades of the tumors, classifying the tumors into low, medium and high-grade tumors. The clinico-pathological characteristics accompanying each tumor include p53 status, ER status, tumor grade, lymph node status and patient age. Keywords: Tumor sample comparisons

MEGF10, a Glioma Survival-Associated Molecular Signature, Predicts IDH Mutation Status.

Project description:Glioma is the most common primary brain tumor with various genetic alterations; among which, IDH mutation is the most common mutation and plays an important role in glioma early development, especially in lower grade glioma (LGG, WHO II-III). Previous studies have found that IDH mutation is tightly associated with extensive methylation across whole genome in glioma. To further investigate the role of IDH, we obtained methylation data of 777 samples from CGGA (Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas) and TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas) with IDH mutation status available. A package compiled under R language called Tspair was used as the main analytic tool to find potential probes that were significantly affected by IDH mutation. As a result, we found one pair of probes, cg06940792 and cg26025891, which was capable of predicting IDH mutation status precisely. The hypermethylated probe was cg06940792, designed in the promoter region of MEGF10, while the hypomethylated probe was cg26025891, designed in the promoter region of PSTPIP1. Survival analysis proved that hypermethylation or low expression of MEGF10 indicated a favorable prognosis in 983 glioma samples. Moreover, gene ontology analysis demonstrated that MEGF10 was associated with cell migration, cell proliferation, and regulation of apoptosis in glioma. All findings above can be validated in three other independent cohorts. In a word, our results suggested that methylation level and mRNA expression of MEGF10 in glioma were not only correlated with IDH mutation but also associated with clinical outcome of patients, providing potential guide for future dissection of IDH role in glioma.

A transcriptome-based signature of pathological angiogenesis predicts breast cancer patient survival.

Project description:The specific genes and molecules that drive physiological angiogenesis differ from those involved in pathological angiogenesis, suggesting distinct mechanisms for these seemingly related processes. Unveiling genes and pathways preferentially associated with pathologic angiogenesis is key to understanding its mechanisms, thereby facilitating development of novel approaches to managing angiogenesis-dependent diseases. To better understand these different processes, we elucidated the transcriptome of the mouse retina in the well-accepted oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) model of pathological angiogenesis. We identified 153 genes changed between normal and OIR retinas, which represent a molecular signature relevant to other angiogenesis-dependent processes such as cancer. These genes robustly predict the survival of breast cancer patients, which was validated in an independent 1,000-patient test cohort (40% difference in 15-year survival; p = 2.56 x 10-21). These results suggest that the OIR model reveals key genes involved in pathological angiogenesis, and these may find important applications in stratifying tumors for treatment intensification or for angiogenesis-targeted therapies.

A transcriptional fingerprint of estrogen in human breast cancer predicts patient survival.

Project description:Estrogen signaling plays an essential role in breast cancer progression, and estrogen receptor (ER) status has long been a marker of hormone responsiveness. However, ER status alone has been an incomplete predictor of endocrine therapy, as some ER+ tumors, nevertheless, have poor prognosis. Here we sought to use expression profiling of ER+ breast cancer cells to screen for a robust estrogen-regulated gene signature that may serve as a better indicator of cancer outcome. We identified 532 estrogen-induced genes and further developed a 73-gene signature that best separated a training set of 286 primary breast carcinomas into prognostic subtypes by stepwise cross-validation. Notably, this signature predicts clinical outcome in over 10 patient cohorts as well as their respective ER+ subcohorts. Further, this signature separates patients who have received endocrine therapy into two prognostic subgroups, suggesting its specificity as a measure of estrogen signaling, and thus hormone sensitivity. The 73-gene signature also provides additional predictive value for patient survival, independent of other clinical parameters, and outperforms other previously reported molecular outcome signatures. Taken together, these data demonstrate the power of using cell culture systems to screen for robust gene signatures of clinical relevance.

A combinatorially regulated RNA splicing signature predicts breast cancer EMT states and patient survival.

Project description:During breast cancer metastasis, the developmental process epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is abnormally activated. Transcriptional regulatory networks controlling EMT are well-studied; however, alternative RNA splicing also plays a critical regulatory role during this process. A comprehensive understanding of alternative splicing (AS) and the RNA binding proteins (RBPs) that regulate it during EMT and their impact on breast cancer remains largely unknown. In this study, we annotated AS in the breast cancer TCGA data set and identified an AS signature that is capable of distinguishing epithelial and mesenchymal states of the tumors. This AS signature contains 25 AS events, among which nine showed increased exon inclusion and 16 showed exon skipping during EMT. This AS signature accurately assigns the EMT status of cells in the CCLE data set and robustly predicts patient survival. We further developed an effective computational method using bipartite networks to identify RBP-AS networks during EMT. This network analysis revealed the complexity of RBP regulation and nominated previously unknown RBPs that regulate EMT-associated AS events. This study highlights the importance of global AS regulation during EMT in cancer progression and paves the way for further investigation into RNA regulation in EMT and metastasis.

A Methylation-Based Signature Predicts Survival In Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patient

Project description:Epigenetic deregulation is a critical event in human malignancies. A number of DNA methylation markers are currently under evaluation as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for many cancers. However, its potential role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is under-explored. Aims: To develop a DNA methylation-based prognostic signature in surgically resected HCC Tumors from 224 HCC resected patients, 10 normal Liver individuals and 9 Cirrhotic patients were analyzed. Methylome profiling was done with Illumina HumanMethylation450 (485,000 CpG, 96% of known CpG islands). We selected probes in CpG islands located in promoters, hypermethylated (B value higher than 50%) in at least 5% of the tumors and hypomethylated (B value lower than 33%) in more than 90% of normal liver.

A BRCA1-mutation associated DNA methylation signature in blood cells predicts sporadic breast cancer incidence and survival.

Project description:BRCA1 mutation carriers have an 85% risk of developing breast cancer but the risk of developing non-hereditary breast cancer is difficult to assess. Our objective is to test whether a DNA methylation (DNAme) signature derived from BRCA1 mutation carriers is able to predict non-hereditary breast cancer.In a case/control setting (72 BRCA1 mutation carriers and 72 BRCA1/2 wild type controls) blood cell DNA samples were profiled on the Illumina 27 k methylation array. Using the Elastic Net classification algorithm, a BRCA1-mutation DNAme signature was derived and tested in two cohorts: (1) The NSHD (19 breast cancers developed within 12 years after sample donation and 77 controls) and (2) the UKCTOCS trial (119 oestrogen receptor positive breast cancers developed within 5 years after sample donation and 122 controls).We found that our blood-based BRCA1-mutation DNAme signature applied to blood cell DNA from women in the NSHD resulted in a receiver operating characteristics (ROC) area under the curve (AUC) of 0.65 (95% CI 0.51 to 0.78, P?=?0.02) which did not validate in buccal cells from the same individuals. Applying the signature in blood DNA from UKCTOCS volunteers resulted in AUC of 0.57 (95% CI 0.50 to 0.64; P?=?0.03) and is independent of family history or any other known risk factors. Importantly the BRCA1-mutation DNAme signature was able to predict breast cancer mortality (AUC?=?0.67; 95% CI 0.51 to 0.83; P?=?0.02). We also found that the 1,074 CpGs which are hypermethylated in BRCA1 mutation carriers are significantly enriched for stem cell polycomb group target genes (P <10(-20)).A DNAme signature derived from BRCA1 carriers is able to predict breast cancer risk and death years in advance of diagnosis. Future studies may need to focus on DNAme profiles in epithelial cells in order to reach the AUC thresholds required of preventative measures or early detection strategies.

ABI1-based expression signature predicts breast cancer metastasis and survival.

Project description:Despite the current standard of care, breast cancer remains one of the leading causes of mortality in women worldwide, thus emphasizing the need for better predictive and therapeutic targets. ABI1 is associated with poor survival and an aggressive breast cancer phenotype, although its role in tumorigenesis, metastasis, and the disease outcome remains to be elucidated. Here, we define the ABI1-based seven-gene prognostic signature that predicts survival of metastatic breast cancer patients; ABI1 is an essential component of the signature. Genetic disruption of Abi1 in primary breast cancer tumors of PyMT mice led to significant reduction of the number and size of lung metastases in a gene dose-dependent manner. The disruption of Abi1 resulted in deregulation of the WAVE complex at the mRNA and protein levels in mouse tumors. In conclusion, ABI1 is a prognostic metastatic biomarker in breast cancer. We demonstrate, for the first time, that lung metastasis is associated with an Abi1 gene dose and specific gene expression aberrations in primary breast cancer tumors. These results indicate that targeting ABI1 may provide a therapeutic advantage in breast cancer patients.

Three-microRNA expression signature predicts survival in triple-negative breast cancer.

Project description:Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a specific type of breast cancer with poor overall survival (OS) time. Previous studies revealed that microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) serve important roles in the pathogenesis, progression and prognosis of TNBC. The present study analyzed the miRNA expression and clinical data of patients with TNBC downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas. A total of 194 differentially expressed miRNAs were identified between TNBC and matched normal tissues using the cut-off criteria of P<0.05 and |log2 fold change|>2. Of these miRNAs, 65 were downregulated and 129 were upregulated. Using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, a total of 77 miRNAs that were closely associated with OS time were identified (P<0.05). The intersection of the 77 miRNAs and 194 differentially expressed miRNAs revealed six miRNAs. Log-rank tests based on survival curves were performed and two miRNAs were eliminated. The prognostic value of the remaining four miRNAs was evaluated with a Cox proportional hazards model using multiple logistic regression with forward stepwise selection of variables. Three miRNAs (miR-21-3p, miR-659-5p and miR-200b-5p) were subsequently identified as independent risk factors associated with OS time in the model. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analyses revealed that the target genes of these three miRNAs were mainly involved in 'cell protein metabolism', 'RNA transcriptional regulation', 'cell migration', 'MAPK signaling pathway', 'ErbB signaling pathway', 'prolactin signaling pathway' and 'adherens junctions'. Taken together, the results obtained in the present study suggested that the three-miRNA signature may serve as a prognostic biomarker for patients with TNBC.
